Do your emotions feel like an unpredictable storm, leaving you struggling to regain control? When intense feelings take over, they can strain relationships, erode self-worth, and make joy seem out of reach. Shame can creep in when we start wondering why life feels so hard to us yet seems so effortless for others. I support individuals facing emotional dysregulation, anxiety, and low self-worth. Together, we’ll explore ways to quiet the internal chaos, reconnect with your true self, and rediscover moments of joy.

Treatment Approach
- Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) Helps people accept difficult thoughts and feelings instead of fighting them, while committing to actions that reflect their values. It blends mindfulness with practical behavior strategies.
- Eclectic Therapy Draws from different therapeutic methods based on what fits each client best. It is flexible and personalized rather than following one single model.
- Existential / Humanistic Therapy Encourages people to explore meaning, freedom, and authenticity in their lives. It focuses on personal growth and living in alignment with one’s values.
- Experiential Therapy Involves hands-on activities to bring emotions into the present moment. It helps clients process feelings more deeply than through conversation alone.
- Integrative Therapy Combines techniques from multiple approaches into a customized plan. It adapts to each client’s unique situation and needs.
- Person-Centered Therapy (Rogerian) Emphasizes empathy, unconditional positive regard, and authenticity. It provides a safe space for self-discovery and growth.
- Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) Focuses on solutions and future goals rather than past problems. It is practical, short-term, and goal-driven.
Approach Description: I take an integrative approach to therapy based on collaboration and trust. I offer an empathetic and non-judgmental space for clients to explore their internal experience, learn new skills, and gain self-understanding.
